San Diego Wave FC announced on March 22 that the club has signed midfielder Giovanna DeMarco ahead of the season. DeMarco signed a one-year deal with an option through the 2024 season.<\/p>\n

\u201cGiovanna is a talented young player who will add depth to our roster following her collegiate career at Wake Forest.

DeMarco, 23, spent the last five seasons at Wake Forest University. A native from Gwynedd Valley, Pa., DeMarco appeared in 74 games (69 starts), tallying 11 goals and seven assists in her collegiate career.

\u201cI am so excited to have signed my first professional contract with the San Diego Wave. This is a dream come true, and I can\u2019t wait to play in front of the best fans in the league at Snapdragon Stadium,\u201d DeMarco said.<\/p>\n
